I need one big paragraph about why duty ethics is bad ?PLEASE

gladu [14]

Good and bad pointsGood points of duty-based ethics<span><span>emphasises the value of every human being<span>Duty-based ethical systems tend to focus on giving equal respect to all human beings.This provides a basis for human rights - it forces due regard to be given to the interests of a single person even when those are at odds with the interests of a larger group.</span></span><span>says some acts are always wrong<span>Kantian duty-based ethics says that some things should never be done, no matter what good consequences they produce. This seems to reflect the way some human beings think.Rossian duty-based ethics modified this to allow various duties to be balanced, which, it could be argued, is an even better fit to the way we think.</span></span><span>provides 'certainty'<span>Consequentialist ethical theories bring a degree of uncertainty to ethical decision-making, in that no-one can be certain about what consequences will result from a particular action, because the future is unpredictable.Duty-based ethics don't suffer from this problem because they are concerned with the action itself - if an action is a right action, then a person should do it, if it's a wrong action they shouldn't do it - and providing there is a clear set of moral rules to follow then a person faced with a moral choice should be able to take decisions with reasonable certainty.Of course things aren't that clear cut. Sometimes consequentialist theories can provide a fair degree of certainty, if the consequences are easily predictable.Furthermore, rule-based consequentialism provides people with a set of rules that enable them to take moral decisions based on the sort of act they are contemplating.</span></span><span>deals with intentions and motives<span>Consequentialist theories don't pay direct attention to whether an act is carried out with good or bad intentions; most people think these are highly relevant to moral judgements.Duty-based ethics can include intention in at least 2 ways...If a person didn't intend to do a particular wrong act - it was an accident perhaps - then from a deontological point of view we might think that they hadn't done anything deserving of criticism. This seems to fit with ordinary thinking about ethical issues.Ethical rules can be framed narrowly so as to include intention.</span></span></span>Bad points of duty-based ethics<span><span>absolutistDuty-based ethics sets absolute rules. The only way of dealing with cases that don't seem to fit is to build a list of exceptions to the rule.</span><span>allows acts that make the world a less good place<span>Because duty-based ethics is not interested in the results it can lead to courses of action that produce a reduction in the overall happiness of the world.Most people would find this didn't fit with their overall idea of ethics:</span></span></span>

In 1981, a group of air traffic controllers, employees of the Federal Aviation Administration, went on strike. They wanted to

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

Personally I think Reagan did do the right thing by firing the striking workers.

Explanation:

President Reagan was just that, a president, as a president he has an image to uphold and that is one of a fair and lawful official. Although it is unfortunate that the air traffic controllers disagreed with the hours and obligations of their work, they are the ones that chose the job and agreed to those hours. The president was correct in calling the strike a "peril to national safety" as they're some of the only people in the US who can manage 1000's of flights of days and with their absence from work, flights carrying hundreds of passengers did not have the directive they needed to stay safe. Also, federal employees were prohibited by law from striking so of course there is going to be repercussions when they break said law.

Amber is slightly above her normal weight. She feels that she has no control over her eating and often consumes large quantities

Gnom [1K]

The correct answer is letter B

Bulimia is a disorder that is characterized by recurrent and uncontrollable episodes of consuming large amounts of food, usually with a high calorie content, followed by inappropriate reactions to prevent weight gain, such as inducing vomiting, use of laxatives and diuretics, fasting prolonged and exhaustive practice of physical activity.

In people with bulimia, it is not thinness that draws attention. In general, they are young women with sculptural bodies, who care for him obsessively. They follow strict diets. Suddenly, they lose control and eat an absurd amount of food, most of the time, on the sly. Then they are filled with feelings of remorse or guilt.

The resources they use to not put on weight cause complications in the body. For example: destruction of tooth enamel, sore throat, bleeding, gastrointestinal problems, cardiac arrhythmias, dehydration etc.

Advocates of gay marriage argued that Section 2 of the federal Defense of Marriage Act, which stated that no state must accept a

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

It violated the Equal Protection Clause.

Explanation:

In the text of the 14th Amendment of the US Constitution, the Equal Protection Clause forbids states from denying in its jurisdiction, any person, the equal protection of the laws. When section 2 of DOMA attempted to allow states the denial of recognition of marriages conducted in other states by same sex couples, it violated the Equal Protection Clause.
